Co-designing the science we need for the Ocean Decade

What does co-designed, solution-oriented research mean in the context of the Ocean Decade? And how can we foster co-design co-production and co-delivery in ocean research during the Ocean Decade?

These were the guiding questions for a recent webinar convened by the Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission of UNESCO in partnership with the International Science Council. The webinar brought together experts in trans- and inter-disciplinary research for a wide-ranging discussion drawing on lessons learned from existing research, and looking ahead to how the Decade will promote and facilitate research that is co-delivered and co-designed.
